Inflated Lungs – Virtual Reality from the University of Arkansas Department of Anatomy Note the curvilinear course of the fissures. Black anthracotic pigment outlines numerous secondary pulmonary lobules, especially along the dorsal aspect of the lung. The edge of the lung along the right middle lobe and lingula is thin, which makes these areas a favorite site for open surgical biopsy. |
